This is a wonderful opportunity to be active and learn more about a beautiful land and its history and people. Ian and his crew do a brilliant job of showing off beautiful landscapes and making guests feel right at home. My husband and I had terrific fun and look forward to exploring more of this intriguing nation.

This trip ranks first on my list of RS favorites. The hiking was challenging but invigorating. The scenery was beautiful and this group of people excellent fun. The group was a perfect size with 15 participants. Our guides ( Ian and Brian) were a good team. Make sure you have the right gear for this adventure if you plan on going.

Delightful walking, invigorating hiking and immersion in the natural beauty that are the Cotswolds and Cornwall. The access to public trails is incredible, the cliffs dramatic, the guides open and knowledgable. . Food, accommodations and transportation were all good, and our group was fun and energetic. A trip deserving of a 5 star rating!

This program is a wonderful way to experience the charm and beauty of both the Cotswolds and Cornwall areas of England. The treks are challenging at times and do require good non-slip, water resistant hiking footwear. Treking poles are not a must have but I found useful on slippery rocky early morning treks along the coastal paths of Cornwall. Lodging and meals were top notch. There was ample free time to explore the villages we hiked to prior to boarding transportation back to our hotel and dinner. The overall pace of the program was well done with a diversified agenda that made the overall experience most enjoyable.

I love to hike, so I chose a program at the most challenging level in a location that was totally different from the mountains of Southern California. The Cotswolds and the Cornwall Coast both had walking trails of great beauty. The hotels and food were first-rate. The other participants were a fun and varied group. Every day I woke up looking forward to a wonderful walking experience, and at the end of every day I was tired and happy. Our fearless leaders, Geoff and Roy, were funny and knowledgeable.

This trip exceeded all of my expectations. It was wonderful to be walking in these two beautiful parts of England with fun people, great guides, and oustanding scenery. The meals and hotels were excellent! Each walk was completely different and each day was wonderful with delightful experiences. I could go on this trip again in a couple of years.

Hiking in the Cotswolds and Cornwall is a strenuous, but fantastic marriage of ambition and satisfaction. These areas can best be experienced on the ground and at walking speed. I heartily recommend the experience while you still can walk.
